she adds, was not i'll proportion to my

brave and big souled men can do when as
sured of sincere DISTINGUISHED affection. His
manners and self culture became a serious
study with him. He not only aimed To be a
perfect soldier but he was determined to take
up his studies, interrupted by his early enlist

himself school books and pored over them
with patience i'll the evenings. He seemed
to have come through unscathed by the

Prohibition IN the south.


We have called attention several times
to the strong prohibition movement
which has been spreading an the South for
the last few wears, and to the fact that
complete and absolute prohibition has
been carried in many localities. The
case of Georgia has attracted the most
atten 'on, but similar movement has
been noticeable i'll Mississippi, Arkansas
and Texas.
The act of the Legislature under
which the question was submitted TO the
people of the several Georgia counties
was undoubtedly friendly 10 the Prohi-
bitionists and gave them every advan-
tage over their opponents, and through
these advantages they were able to carry
two-thirds OF the State against the sale
of liquor.
A similar movement in Mississippi
was successful in many counties. but
finally met with something OF check
In Texas the ProhibitionIsts made their
appearance in general politics, and con
graduated themselves over defeating "A
number of candidates for office, includ-
ing one Congressman.
Tennessee seems now to have become
the Southern battle ground of prohibi-
ton. a prohibitory amendment has
been passed by the Legislature by an
almost UNANIMOUS vote, which will be
submitted to the popular vote in Septem-
Der next. This is somewhat different
from the system pursued in other South
ern States, where the practice has gener
ally been to vote on the matter by coun-
ties. The latter plan has been found the
best in the long run. Where prohiDi-
ton has been forced on a community.
against the wishes Of an immense ma
JOrity Of the population, it is almost al.
ways Ineffective; where, however, ma
jority favor it 1t can be enforced. The
prohibition counties then support and
carry out prohibitions; whereas, those
that are compelled, against the wishes
of their population to abolish the sale OF
liquor, nearly always evade or disregard
the law.
The vote by an entire State on the
question of prohibition has, without ex.
ception. resulted in a defeat in the South
1t remains to be- seen whether Tennessee,
will prove an exception to this rule. In
the meanwhile, for the next six months
We may expect a warm canvass In tina

In MenOriam.

Died, February %, 1887, at his home at
RolIeston, Putnam county, Florida, N.
b. White, in the sixty-fifth year Of his
age.
For years Mr.. White has been in fee
BILE health, but the intelligence of his
death will bring sorrow to many who
knew him well and loved him for his
noble heart, open hand and pure life.
He has done much for our county and
section, and has ever proved himself
worthy citizen, kind neighbor and faith
full friend.
He was born in North Carolina, passed
his early years in Illinois and thence re-
moved to New York. There he went into
business and came to Florida, broken in
health, in 1869. Here he bought large
tracts of land and began to make a
grove and home on the st. Johns at Rol-
lesion. AT one time he owned large
herd of cattle, and at another built and
managed saw-Inill to cut up the tim
Der on his extensive lands between the
St. Johns and Halifax rivers. From the
poiC iOdu, Duht w SoAhy OoS AAo VIII
Der, has been evolved the st. Johns and
Halifax Railway, which is now an i'm
portant factor in the business of East
Florida.
SO estimable in public life-so enter
prising as a citizen, and of such sterling
worth az a business man was Mr.. White,
yet he was ever most unassuming and
quiet, The deceased was a brother to
the Hon. s. V. White, of Brooklyn.
The millionaire broker, known on Wall
street as the embodiment of shrewdness
and the most daring of spectators, was
ever kind as a woman to his invalid
brother, and the attachment between
them was an honor to both. To the
heart of this brother the sudden end of a
long sickness will carry bitter pang
our county has lost one of it's most val.
ued citizens-many of us mourn friend
as well as a loved member of the COM
munity. Peace to his ashes.
The funeral will take place to-day al
2:30 p.m., and he will be buried at his
home at Rnlleston.
